The gameplay loop seems fine, but mostly interested in the rewards. Honestly everything other then cosmetic is just for bots? Making magic shortbow faster :). None main would do that when they can just go into wildy and earn way more money or try to rush levels to raids. New spools is crazy for bots idk.

Even for irons, its proboly not worth it to go out of your way to make faster things when fletching is already a no time skill. Making strings is so bad and sure you get some from a boss? But you kinda swimming in cash after that anyways.

I wanted interesting rewards, not just make the least relevant skill even less relevant :/. The first blog post were interesting, but it seems like the only minigame for fletching will mostly only change that people will make fletching bots. Goes a bit faster to make arrowshaft for irons, but its still a no time skill. What you think?

    I honestly hoped it wouldn’t pass just because there wasn’t enough solid rewards to merit a minigame for. The herblore mini game has some pretty great rewards and adds a new way to train herblore that uses your crap herbs.

    This minigame has like two rewards and I would only care about one of them even as an iron.

    I’m already kinda tired of mini games for skill upgrades so having this mini game be underwhelming feels bad. Plus there’s only two rewards so you know they’re gonna make those two take a fair bit of time to grind out.

      yee, i mean most people other then bots will not care about the spoll thingy, sure maybe some people who doesnt know how to earn money or efficent will do it. but its the same as cutting magic logs. ahh a bad method getting buffed? like who cares, if jagex buff yew trees on membership worlds, still going to be so bad yep.

      herblore minigame was so good rewards, well not very, but made it very nice for ironmans atleast, which we know the minigame was for haha.

      takes longer then 30min to get the knife? then its probly not efficent to go out of your way to get it on ironman, so honestly its so dead minigame. :(, and we aint going to get a new fletching minigame most likely next 15 years.
